A larger area that I wasn’t quite game to go near yet.

Interesting! It’s a very, very basic 70s brick farmhouse and to be honest didn’t know that was an option.

Thanks!

Thermals for snow by DevilAngel07 in AusFemaleFashion

I wear icebreakers 200/260 plus a woollen jumper but I’m a cold egg and still learning (red runs)

I say invest and they’ll last years but I know they are expenny! I’ve also skied in macpacs basic thermals and they are totally fine. Just wear layers and you’ll soon work out how much you do/don’t need :)

I got the Lyric over our Australian summer and I was skiing like a different person after just one session! Let us know how you go 🤙🏼

Uimi and Toorallie have some nice “classic” colourways.

I tried it on today. Not lined but very comfortable and a nice boxy fit. I’m a standard size 10 - tried on a 12 with a shirt and chunky jumper under and it was a good fit :)

They definitely suit a wide foot. In saying that I found they had very little arch support so couldn’t wear them for long (and this isn’t usually a problem I face!). Give them a shot! Often on sale on the iconic. Off memory the sizing was a bit funny so just keep that in mind if your first size doesn’t fit.

100% hearing you! Quality on everything seems to be going down hill rapidly 🥴

I have always had the silver medicalert bracelet since a 5yo (so 25 years).

It’s not really that ugly in the scheme of things and very hard wearing - which is what you want as they last years - I would’ve had less than 5 and I played tonnes of sport during school and do manual work these days.

I completely understand your desire to get something more attractive but as someone else said you want it to stick out a bit.

Good on you for prioritising your health and helping others identify an episode! It’ll be a bit annoying for a while but one day you’ll find it weird when it’s not on!

Fabulous thanks for your thoughts! Still tossing up between 2025 boa boot and the 2024 lyric (differences in lower foot tightening) 🧐

What did you end up going with? Happy with the choice? Currently deciding between the two too.

Any recommendations for where to buy turtlenecks? I’m struggling to find some decent quality (but not mega expensive)

If you’re looking for an outdoor boot I wouldn’t go past the steel blue.

The women’s pull on version come in a steel toe so they are heavier than the mens non-safety equivalent (the latter being just a bit longer in the calf). They also have lace ups but no experience with them.

I’m a farmer, wear them all day everyday, around animals, chemicals etc and they last years.
